Wareing to open St Pancras restaurant
Chef Marcus Wareing will open a flagship restaurant at the St Pancras Renaissance Hotel London in London’s Kings Cross.
To be called Gilbert Scott - after the architect who designed the 1873 Victorian St Pancras building - the 120-cover, 6,700sq ft British brasserie will be Wareing's second in London.
The building – including the restaurant – is due to reopen as the St Pancras Renaissance Hotel on 5 May. David Coffer Lyons acted on behalf of Manhattan Loft Corporation, which is developing the St Pancras project.
Wareing said: "The minute I set foot in St Pancras I just knew it was for me; the building is breathtaking and has an amazing sense of time and place that I had to be a part of.
"This is not another Marcus Wareing at the Berkeley, there can only be one, it is a very different venture and immensely exciting."
